Québec City, Québec — The rise of the temperature gauge tends to put people in a good mood. The brooks begin babbling again and the sun beams rays to melt swaths of snow–but that doesn’t mean drivers should let go of their winter driving habits quite yet.
Last week, a 55-year-old driver from Québec suffered injuries after a stray piece of ice flew off an oncoming vehicle and smashed through her windshield.
Despite suffering facial injuries, the woman was able to stop her vehicle at the side of the road and report the incident.
Police are reminding motorists that it is the law in both Quebec and Ontario to make sure your vehicle is clear of any snow or ice that could come loose while driving.
